Crystal Palace attacker Eze is about to join Arsenal. The Daily Telegraph analyzed his position on the Gunners. According to the different choices of the formation and style, Eze can also play multiple roles. The left winger in

1, 4-3-3 is the most likely situation, but Arsenal needs to allow Eze to cut from the wing to play his strongest ability. A full-back like Karafiori who is born with attack attributes can help him, while Skelly prefers to collect from the midfield.

Partners with a center forward who hopes to rely on running to get rid of the defender, a winger with strong ball control and creativity is needed. After Manchester City signed Haaland, Gallish and B got positions on both sides. Unlike Sterling or Sane who were more like pseudo-9, the winger's mission became possession of the ball and delivering shells to the center. At Arsenal, Eze may take over Martinelli's role to form a similar style of play.

2, 4-3-3 left midfielder No. 8

This is a bolder choice. Arteta tried to arrange another creative midfielder next to Odegao, but the experiment did not last long. Is this because of the question of Fabio Vieira or Smith Roh, or the theory itself has problems, the answer is still unresolved.

Many Arsenal fans want to see this formation, but this may cost the team's defense. It is worth noting that although Eze mainly operated in the middle when he was at Crystal Palace, the team adopted a five-guard system at that time. In addition, there is a tricky problem that one of Suvimenti and Rice will be left out of the starter, and both of them have essential traits. This may be a more reasonable formation change that Arsenal would use when it needs to catch up with the score. At the beginning of the season, Arteta placed Gabriel on the bench and let Thomas serve as the right back. When Arsenal possesses the ball, Thomas will return to the midfield and form a 4-man team with Rice, Odge and Havertz, while Saka, Nketia and Martinelli will serve as an attacking 3-man team. But this formation only used a few games. As rumors of transfer to Saudi Arabia gradually subsided, Gabriel returned to the starting lineup and everything returned to normal.

However, this brief attempt has the potential to provide Arsenal with a tempting tactical possibility to fully utilize all midfielders and offensive players. The formation of 3 defenders, Diamond midfielder and 3 forwards was perfectly interpreted by Cruyff's Barcelona "Dream Team", which was also the team that Arteta admired when he was a child.

This formation may attract people's attention, but who will serve as the left back when the team does not have the ball possession? Arteta's emphasis on the left-back position is well known.
